CLIVE HORACE SHEPHERD

(1888-1911)

EDNA QUEENIE SHEPHERD BINGHAM

(1894-1918)

· Henrietta Sarah’s granddaughter thinks all the portraits are by Francis Edgar Dodd RA (1874-1949), a notable British portrait and landscape artist and printmaker

· she comments “she had 3 sons in quick succession, then the longed for daughter, before producing yet another son – Edna was pretty and delicate, at least in her Mother's eyes, and could be dressed in pretty clothes, so it is logical she had more portraits painted of her!” – so they were possibly made before her marriage in 1915

· the inscription at the bottom of D631 says

“Her Smile is as a listening Child’s

who hears its Mother’s call.”

so perhaps this photo(?) was prepared after her death

Melbury, Southborough Road, Bickley, Kent

· Edwin Messingham’s daughter notes: “Henrietta Sarah promised him a sum of money as long as he didn't smoke or drink until he was over 21 - I think he managed the smoking one, but admitted to 'having' to drink socially when he was at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge - he would certainly NOT have been smoking in front of Henrietta Sarah!” – he was 19½ in these photos

3 miniatures of HENRIETTA SARAH DURHAM SHEPHERD GODFREE

1 of EDWIN MESSINGHAM SHEPHERD

· his daughter thinks sometime in the 1920's

Edwin Messingham’s daughter thought that the older man was probably CHARLES MESSINGHAM SHEPHERD II, (1864-1915),

but seeing D698+ above, and especially if the miniatures date from the 1920’s, it is more probable that it was ALFRED GODFREE (1856-1928)

ANTHONY CHARLES SHEPHERD

(born 26 JAN 1928)

D638-40

about 1929

CHARLES ANTHONY SHEPHERD

► the studio in D638, where they were presumably all taken, is O. Hardee(?), Chislehurst

· the photos of his Mother and niece and nephew on the next page were taken at the same studio
